Chapter 1969 : Primordial Qi, Tianyan's Scheme

Chapter 1970: Primordial Genesis Qi, Heaven's Calculation of 5 1000 Words "Impressive methods, sir."

Watching Eldrin release the Golden Roc Demon Lord, the Flaming Sky Demon Lord couldn't help but reveal a trace of despair.

In this battle, Eldrin had every opportunity to capture them all, yet he deliberately allowed the Golden Roc Demon Lord to escape, leaving the 8 of them behind.

In truth, had the Golden-Winged Demon Lord been willing to stake his life, they might still have clung to a sliver of hope in this battle.

But now that the Golden-Winged Demon Lord had departed, how could the remaining 8 of them possibly stand against Eldrin?

"Gentlemen, I shall grant you eternal slumber."

Eldrin sneered coldly as he spoke. With a flick of his sleeve, he harnessed his unparalleled divine power to strike across the 8 directions. In a single move, he sent the Sky-Scorching Demon Lord reeling through the air, blood spraying from his wounds.

After being empowered by the authority of Sacrificial Daoism, Eldrin's combat prowess had become incomparable to his past self, nearly shattering the ultimate barrier between the Great Luo Golden Immortal and the Primordial Chaos Emperor realms.

With such combat prowess, he could contend against 5 Great Perfection Golden Immortals joining forces simultaneously. Since both Demon Monarchs' cultivation only reached the ordinary Golden Immortal realm, if engaged in all-out combat, neither would likely withstand a 100 moves against Eldrin in single combat.

At this moment, Eldrin wielded myriad divine abilities with each strike unleashing cosmos-shattering power capable of annihilating heavens and earth. In merely a few 100 exchanges, both combatants had sustained grievous wounds, their strength visibly fading to the brink of collapse.

"Ah—"

The Blazing Flame Demon Lord was sent flying, coughing up blood once more, and could endure it no longer.

His face turned icy as he roared, "Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure), even if I perish today, I shall make sure you suffer no less!"

As the words fell, the Blazing Flame Demon Lord and the Cyan Crocodile Demon Lord simultaneously unleashed their ultimate combat prowess. Their cultivation bases and power continuously surged, nearly brushing against the threshold of the Primordial Chaos Emperor Realm.

Forbidden Divine Power?

A faint chill flickered in Eldrin's eyes, yet he remained utterly unshaken as he continued his assault, engaging the 2 in a world-shaking confrontation.

A Great Perfection Golden Immortal, once unleashing a forbidden divine ability, would experience a drastic surge in both magical power and divine might—enough to pose a threat to an early-stage Primordial Emperor. Thus, such an existence gains the qualification to intervene in battles between Primordial Emperors.

However, the barrier between a Great Luo Golden Immortal and a Chaos Origin Emperor was far too immense. Even if a Great Luo Golden Immortal at the Great Perfection stage unleashed a forbidden divine ability, they could only barely possess combat power at this level—merely qualifying as half a Chaos Origin Emperor in terms of battle prowess.

Generally speaking, if 3 Great Perfection Golden Immortals were to jointly unleash a forbidden divine art, their combined strength would be comparable to that of an early-stage Primordial Chaos Emperor, granting them the capability to contend against such an opponent.

After unleashing their forbidden divine abilities, the Blaze Scorch Demon Lord and the Azure Crocodile Demon Lord had attained extraordinary power. Yet, as their strength held no qualitative gap compared to Eldrin's (Person Name) combat prowess, he remained utterly unshaken even when facing both adversaries simultaneously.

With their Chaos Immortal Bodies being nearly indestructible, the 2 erupted with combat prowess at the half-step Chaos Primordial Emperor realm, yet they ultimately struggled to inflict fatal wounds upon Eldrin.

The 2 sides battled fiercely in the primordial chaos until the end of time, a conflict that spanned over 4 1000 years before finally reaching its conclusion.

As the forbidden divine art could not be sustained indefinitely, it ultimately faded, forcing the Blazeflame Demon Lord and the Marshcroc Demon Lord to burn through their last reserves until they were nearly exhausted. Their cultivation realms teetered on the verge of falling back to the seventh level of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage.

Witnessing this, Eldrin (Person Name) directly harnessed the Primordial Chaos Divine Lightning to strike horizontally, obliterating the 2 within the expanse of the Primordial Chaos Boundary Sea.

"Hoo——"....

After slaying the 2, Eldrin slowly exhaled a breath.

He turned to survey the surroundings and saw that Lyra and the others had already vanquished their opponents, bringing this battle to its conclusion.

"Not bad."

In this battle, they had slain 8 late-stage Great Perfection Golden Immortals—an exceptionally rare and decisive victory.

Eldrin stored the seized treasures away. After a brief inventory, he discovered he had acquired a total of 16 top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, along with a dozen or so medium and low-grade ones.

The most crucial Primordial Indestructible Luminescence had been obtained in abundance—over 130 strands in 1 sweep. Combined with what he had seized earlier, Eldrin now held 200 strands of Primordial Indestructible Luminescence in his possession.

At this thought, Eldrin’s mood could not help but lift.

He stored the Primordial Indestructible Radiance away, then looked at the crowd and declared, "This battle has been an overwhelming victory. Even if we return now, our gains can already be considered an abundant harvest."

Seraphina Qu (Person Name) couldn't contain her delight either, blurting out, "Shall we head back now?"

Eldrin (Person Name) pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "The Primordial Chaos Desolate Sea rarely manifests itself. This may very well be our greatest opportunity for the next several kalpas to come."

"Moreover, we still have an ace up our sleeves that we haven't played yet. There's no need to rush into action immediately."

Hearing this, Lyra also nodded. As the person closest to Eldrin, she naturally understood the trump cards Eldrin held.

This great battle had yet to see Eldrin unleash his forbidden divine abilities.

With Eldrin's current cultivation level, if he were to unleash the first stage of the forbidden divine ability, he could likely contend head-on even against newly ascended Primordial Chaos Emperors. Should he resort to the second stage of the forbidden divine ability, he would possess the qualifications to rival those at the early Primordial Chaos Emperor realm.

Such methods would give even the Primordial Chaos Emperor pause for thought.

Although a Chaos Emperor's combat prowess would become even more astonishing and fearsome after unleashing forbidden divine abilities, few Chaos Emperors would ever resort to such measures.

For the higher 1's cultivation base, the longer the recovery time required after unleashing a forbidden divine ability. With the cultivation level of the Primordial Chaos Emperor, the backlash from employing such a technique was even more formidable.

Once they unleashed forbidden divine abilities, they would fall into a prolonged period of frailty, often requiring hundreds of kalpas to recover.

Thus, unless it was truly a life-or-death struggle, the Primordial Chaos Emperor would exercise extreme caution regarding forbidden divine abilities and was highly unlikely to deploy them against an opponent.

At this thought, Lyra (Person Name) felt a slight sense of reassurance in her heart.

She let out a soft sigh before speaking, "In that case, let us continue our exploration."

Seeing that no 1 had any objections, Eldrin did not hesitate and continued to lead the group through the exploration of the Chaotic Boundary Sea.

They continued exploring the Inner Region for quite some time, even managing to capture 2 more superior-grade Chaos Nests.

Within these chaotic lairs, they seized yet another considerable amount of resources, among which were dozens of strands of Innate Indestructible Splendor (Cultivation Resource).

"2 100 and 80 strands of innate indestructible spiritual light have already manifested."

On this day, Eldrin once again emptied a Chaos Nest completely, letting out a heavy, relieved breath.

At that very moment, a faint tremor passed through Eldrin’s brow, and he immediately lifted his gaze toward the depths of the chaos.

"Boom—"

But deep within the chaos ahead, a violent rumbling suddenly erupted.

It was a world-shaking battle, with Chaos Demon Gods roaring across the mountains and rivers, while supreme Golden Immortals of the Great Luo shouted and slaughtered, the clashing sounds echoing endlessly.

Lyra (Person Name) also noticed it at this moment, instinctively looking up. After a moment, she remarked, "It seems another fight has broken out over a Chaos Nest."

The others also nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

During this period, through successive explorations, the various Great Luo Golden Immortals had acquired vast quantities of resources. However, as time progressed, these chaotic lairs were gradually being thoroughly explored and depleted.

The remaining Chaos Nests grew fewer and fewer, and some of the Great Luo Golden Immortals—those who had failed to gather sufficient resources or were dissatisfied with their current gains—began contending with 1 another for these Chaos Nests.

During this period, Eldrin had witnessed dozens of major confrontations and found himself forcibly drawn into the conflicts on multiple occasions.

Fortunately, their formidable strength allowed them to forcefully defeat powerful enemies several times in succession, thus preserving their hard-earned gains.

"Let us go. Our gains are already not insignificant; there is no need to involve ourselves further."

Eldrin spoke up, then immediately led the group away.

But at that very moment, Eldrin suddenly sensed an intensely familiar aura emanating from the center of the battlefield.

This caused his steps to falter slightly, and he hastily halted his imminent departure.

At the same moment, he exchanged a glance with Lyra (Person Name), who spoke softly, "It appears to be the 9-Leaf Sword Grass, bearing the aura of Chilldrift."

Eldrin's expression shifted slightly as he instantly tore through the heavens and appeared at the edge of the battlefield.

Only then did Eldrin realize it was an ancient piece of Primordial Chaos Stone, upon which grew a 9-Leaf Sword Grass.

The 9 leaves of the Sword Grass were sharp and resilient, exuding a peerless sword intent capable of annihilating all realms of chaos—as if forged from that primordial gleam of sword-light at the dawn of creation.

"As expected, it was him."

Eldrin spoke, only then realizing that around the Chaos God Stone, over a dozen Great Perfected Golden Immortals were locked in fierce combat.

Factions clashed fiercely over the Chaos Godstone, their killing intent piercing through the vast primordial chaos. Countless Chaos Fiendgods bled across the 8 desolations, with more than 1 of these primordial beings lying slain upon the battlegrounds.

"This is..."

A flicker of unease crossed the face of the Violet Pole Ancient Phoenix, who couldn't help but voice the question.

Eldrin did not strike immediately. After tracing his fingers in a brief divination, his expression shifted slightly as he spoke, "There seems to be a strand of Primordial Genesis Qi within Yan Jinghan’s body."

Not long before, when a great war erupted among the Divine Emperors deep within the Chaos, a wisp of unclaimed Primordial Qi surged forth from the epicenter and, by a twist of fate, descended upon Yan Jinghan.

Yan Jinghan seized this opportunity to refine that strand of Primordial Beginning Qi, yet his actions were detected by several Great Luo Golden Immortals, triggering an earth-shattering battle.

At this thought, Eldrin’s expression shifted slightly as he said, “Yan Jinghan has already begun to merge with the Primordial Beginning Qi. I’m afraid it can no longer be extracted.”

"We can delay no longer. We must take him away at once."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions shifted subtly. They understood they could not afford to delay. If they dragged this out, more and more would inevitably discover their presence. Moreover, once the war deep within the chaos concluded, the Primordial Emperors might very well intervene to seize this strand of Primordial Chaos Qi.

With this thought in mind, Lyra spoke: "We'll provide covering fire. You go retrieve the Chaos God Stone."

"Excellent—"

Eldrin nodded resolutely and unleashed Chaos Divine Lightning in a sweeping strike.

In an instant, the surging Primordial Chaos Divine Thunder shook the 8 directions, coalescing into a Chaos Thunder Spear that swept through the primordial expanse. Wherever it passed, heroes fell back in defeat, and even several perfected Great Luo Golden Immortals recoiled in alarm, hastily retreating.

Seizing the opportunity, Lyra (Person Name) and the others launched a fierce assault, instantly forcing several Great Luo Golden Immortals into a position where they could barely retaliate.

In that fleeting moment, Eldrin had already charged before the Chaos God Stone, reaching out to claim it in 1 swift motion.

But at this very moment, Eldrin discovered that this Chaos God Stone emanated a power capable of suppressing the void, making it impossible for him to store it within his spatial realm.

With no other choice, Eldrin could only grip the Chaos Godstone tightly and charge deeper into the chaotic expanse.

"How dare you!"

Seeing Eldrin (Person Name) about to depart, the battling Great Luo Golden Immortals nearly descended into madness.

A group of Great Luo Golden Immortals unleashed astonishing techniques, each exerting their utmost to block the advance. Yet despite their extraordinary power, they still found it nearly impossible to withstand Eldrin at this moment.

After the Sacrificial Dao empowered him, Eldrin (Person Name) had become virtually invincible among the Great Luo Golden Immortals. Unless a Primordial Emperor (Cultivation Realm) were to intervene personally, who could possibly stand in his way?

"Those who stand in my way shall perish!"

Eldrin struck with his full power, nearly obliterating the physical form of a Seventh-Level Great Luo in a single clash, instantly tearing open a breach in the battlefield.

Lyra and the others seized the moment to launch a fierce assault, tearing through the encirclement with lightning speed.

They fled deep into the Chaos, traveling for thousands of years before temporarily escaping their pursuers.

But before Eldrin could catch his breath, he noticed the Chaos Godstone radiating a dazzling immortal light, illuminating the chaotic expanse across over a 100 Dao paths.

Eldrin immediately halted his steps at the sight.

He gazed deeply at the Chaos Godstone and the slumbering Yan Jinghan within it, a slight frown creasing between his brows as he murmured, "It seems we've been played."

At this moment, Lyra and the others all turned pale with horror. As they gazed upon the Chaos God Stone before them, they suddenly realized it was a hot potato they couldn't handle.

"You finally caught on, but alas, it's already too late."

At that very moment, from the chaos in all directions, a group of figures suddenly emerged, their auras overwhelming the very heavens.

There were a dozen or so Great Luo Golden Immortals present, among them several figures familiar to Eldrin: the Primordial Chaos Kui Bull, the Ancestor of Azure Extremity, Immortal Lord Wu Ji, and others.

There was even 1 person among them—none other than the Golden-Winged Demon Lord whom Eldrin had previously allowed to escape.

The 1 speaking was none other than Patriarch Qingji. He cast a glance at Eldrin (Person Name) and said with an air of serenity, "Guixu, you are indeed formidable. Perhaps you may become humanity's third Dao Ancestor."

"Since you already possess such remarkable aptitude, why remain fixated on those 5 Great Daos?"

Eldrin's expression remained unaltered. After calmly surveying the assembly with an indifferent gaze, he spoke in an icy tone: "Patriarch Qingji, Patriarch Taihuang, Golden Radiance Celestial Lord, Violet Dawn Deity, Golden Roc Demon Sovereign."

"With 5 supreme Great Perfection Golden Immortals joining forces, you still require the Chaos Godstone to scheme against me?"

It turned out that among these dozen or so formidable foes, there were as many as 5 Great Perfection Golden Immortals, including Eldrin (Person Name).

Among these 5 individuals, aside from Golden Roc Demon Lord, the other 4 were all archenemies on Eldrin's path to the Great Dao....

Among them, Patriarch Qingji cultivated the Dao of Life, Lord Jinyao cultivated the Primordial Chaos Gold Dao, and Patriarch Taihuang cultivated the Profound Darkness Dao.

The Violet Dawn Deity hailed from the Primal Domain of Myriad Divinities. The Great Dao of Violet Dawn Thunderfire cultivated by this deity was forged through the fusion of the Celestial Fire of Pure Yang and the Great Dao of Violet Abyss Divine Thunder.

Facing 5 formidable foes, each a supreme powerhouse among the peak—the Azure Extremity Ancestor, the Violet Dawn Deity, and the Golden Peng Demon Monarch—all 3 wielded supreme-grade Primordial Spiritual Treasures. Their prowess and strength far surpassed that of ordinary Great Perfection-stage Great Luo Golden Immortals.

Especially the Violet Dawn Deity, this individual had attained the Dao through 7 indestructible foundations and once single-handedly defeated 3 Great Perfection Golden Immortals joining forces. Such power among the Golden Immortals could almost be described as invincible.

The combined combat prowess of these 5 formidable adversaries was sufficient to contend with 9, or even 10, Great Perfection Golden Immortals. They could even hold their own against an early-stage Primordial Chaos Emperor.

They joined forces, but Eldrin (Person Name) never imagined they would even resort to using the Chaos Godstone to ensnare him.

At this thought, a faint chill flickered in Eldrin's eyes, his gaze turning slightly colder.

"Blame your own overwhelming strength."

The Amethyst Radiance Deity spoke, his expression icy as he declared, "With your potential, if we fail to eliminate you today, you will inevitably become a grave threat in the future."

"This time, the Heaven's Evolution Sacred Emperor has laid the trap himself. You shall be utterly annihilated, with no place for burial."

Eldrin did not reply. He handed the Chaos Godstone to Lyra and said, "Frostbane has taken root within the Chaos Godstone. Forcibly extracting it would disrupt its fusion with the Primordial Genesis Qi, resulting in a devastating backlash."

"But in just 30 1000 years, he would fully merge with the Primordial Beginning Qi, and by then, he could awaken spontaneously and break free from the Chaos Godstone."

"Guard him well for me. In 30 1000 years, we shall tear through the void and depart with him."

Lyra's expression shifted subtly upon hearing this. She seemed on the verge of speaking, her words caught between thought and utterance, yet ultimately swallowed the impulse.

I must admit, the schemes of the Heavenly Derivation Saint Emperor are truly astonishing.

If it would take over 1 100 1000 years for Yan Jinghan to awaken, Eldrin would decisively abandon him to avoid losing his main forces here, cutting his way out instead.

The timing of Ke Yanjinghan’s awakening, however, was uncannily fixed at precisely 30,000 years.

30 1000 years was neither too long nor too short—insufficient to draw the siege of countless Great Perfected Golden Immortals, yet destined to culminate in a world-shaking battle. This stretched almost to the very limits of what Eldrin could endure.

At this thought, Lyra (Person Name) spoke, "Are you confident?"

"Got to give it a try."

Eldrin spoke, and an indescribable power of void enveloped the 8 directions, forcibly isolating the void of 10 Dao paths within the chaotic sea.

"This is..."

Qingji Laozi's face shifted slightly, a trace of astonishment flashing across his features.

The eyes of the God of Violet Dawn also grew solemn as he couldn’t help but remark, “To carve out the chaos of 10 Dao paths from the primordial chaos—such a feat likely requires a 20-4-mark supreme-grade innate spiritual treasure to accomplish.”

"This space has been partitioned, and none may disturb us here. Let us unleash our ultimate power in this battle."

Eldrin spoke, his expression calm as he said.

What cleaved this chaos asunder was naturally the Space Sub-Pearl of the Returning Abyss.

Although the spatial sub-bead of the Abyssal Pearl was currently only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure in rank, having been born from the division of a Chaos Supreme Treasure embryo, the power it possessed was by no means comparable to that of an ordinary peak-grade innate spiritual treasure.

At this moment, the Pearl of Returning Abyss directly severed and concealed 10 Dao paths of chaotic void from the surrounding Primordial Chaos Sea.

Concealed by the Heaven-Shrouding Pearl of the Returning Abyss, even the Heavenly Derivation Saint Emperor would find it impossible to deduce their current whereabouts.

The powerful adversaries present all slightly changed their expressions upon seeing this. The Primordial Venerable 1 took a deep breath, then said coldly, "So it comes down to a life-or-death battle after all?"

"Forget it, the 5 of us joining forces are more than enough to eradicate all of you!"

Golden Radiance Celestial Sovereign was even more aloof, steering a massive halberd that shattered the primordial chaos as he launched a forceful strike to suppress Eldrin. "No more words," he commanded coldly. "Draw your weapon."

Boom—

With a deafening roar, the halberd strike descended with an overwhelming, unstoppable divine might, as if intending to cleave Eldrin in 2 on the spot.
